Looks like I'll be keeping my 195,000 mile ZX2 escort that gets 30+mpg!

or finally put some effort into figuring out how to brew biodeezel - and look for a TDI golf jetta or passat

There one minor thing the government could do and that would be to lower the taxes on gasoline at the pump, both state and federal. In North Carolina the tax on gas adds up to .42 per gallon. Granted with gas at the present $3.28 per gallon 42 cents isn't much and it will get more and more insignificant the higher the price of gasoline goes, still any little bit might help.
There is a downside of course, much of that .42 goes to road repair and such. Without that money our highway system will be in more and more need of repair.
Guess you just can't win.

Not that far off

Diesel is $4.07 in Milwaukee
Going to be pricey just draging the camaro down to the track for testing.

Ouch. When it gets that high, no special trips anywhere, just work and back and to the store. At least I'm getting about 30mpg in the four banger.

Re: $5.00/gallon by Labor Day (?)

There are some pretty serious problems with our economy that has me worried. The gas prices are a symptom and I wouldn't be surprised at all if it goes up to five bucks, maybe more. I like to be as self-sufficient as possible, but ain't got no oil well on the back 40.

Maybe $5 a gallon will be enough to force politicians to allow for drilling in this country or at least force voters to throw them out of office!
